Lollapalooza India 2026: Is Linkin Park Finally Coming? Early Lineup, Tickets & Booking Info
Aug
Lollapalooza India is officially returning to Mumbai in January 2026 for its much-anticipated fourth edition. The iconic Mahalaxmi Race Course will once again transform into a musical playground for over 40 artists across four stages. The dates? January 24–25, 2026.
But here’s the real buzz — is Linkin Park finally making their India debut?
🔥 Linkin Park May Headline Lollapalooza India 2026
The rumour mill is ablaze, and fans are losing it. According to several Reddit threads and fan pages, Linkin Park is expected to headline Day 2 of Lollapalooza India 2026. This would mark their first-ever live performance in India as part of their From Zero World Tour.
In a quote shared by CNBCTV18, Mike Shinoda addressed Indian fans directly:
“India has been somewhere we’ve wanted to play for a long time. Our fans there are incredibly passionate, and we can’t wait to finally bring our live show to them.”
This unofficial announcement coincided with RuPay presale promotions, where Bank of Baroda reportedly dropped Linkin Park’s name in a push notification — sending fans into a frenzy.
One fan summed up the excitement perfectly:
“I’ve been manifesting this for the past 24 years. It’s about time.”
🎟️ Ticket Sales & Booking Info
Presale tickets went live for RuPay cardholders on August 26, 2025. General ticket sales opened on August 28 at 12 PM via lollaindia.com and BookMyShow.
If you’re planning to go, don’t wait — early tickets usually sell out fast, especially with rumours of global acts like Linkin Park performing.
🧩 Easter Eggs in Official Posts
Lollapalooza India’s official Instagram hasn’t confirmed the Linkin Park news directly. However, fans have pointed out subtle hints in their captions:
- “From zero to hundred. Experience the next level of live music at Lolla India 2026.” — likely a nod to Linkin Park’s 2024 album From Zero.
- “Come be a part of something.” — possibly referencing lyrics from The Emptiness Machine.
Coincidence? Fans don’t think so.
